Jennifer Lawrence revealed how traumatized she felt following her nude photos being leaked online.

In a new interview, she said that the incident was so violating "that you can't even put into words."

She's still processing the incident three years later.

The actress was one of several stars like Kate Upton and Kirsten Dunst, who had their iCloud accounts hacked.

The Oscar-winning actress said she is still processing the invasive incident three years after it happened.

Speaking on The Hollywood Reporter's Awards Chatter Podcast she said: "When the hacking thing happened - it was so unbelievably violating that you can't even put into words. I think that I am still actually processing.

"I feel like I got gangbanged by the f---ing planet. There was not one person in the world that is not capable of seeing these intimate photos of me."

She finished: "You could just be at a barbecue and someone could just pull it up on their phone. That was a really impossible thing to process."

Lawrence - who was dating Nicholas Hoult at the time - said she was contacted by women who encouraged her to bring a lawsuit, but decided against suing Apple as it was unable to delete all the images from the internet.

She said: "None of that was going to bring me peace and none of that was going to bring my nude body back to me and Nick, the person they were intended for."

Lawrence was one of a handful of celebrities including Kate Upton and Kirsten Dunst who had private nude pictures of themselves circulated online after their iCloud accounts were hacked.

The Hunger Games actress also recalled the time she ran sobbing to a toilet after someone told her she was a good role model.

She said: "I felt like an impostor or I felt like I can't believe someone still feels that way."
